No I dont show my cards. You dont want to give info to the other players, I make an exeption when I have won several hands in a row with agressive play. I will show a premium hand that didnt show down, This so the others will think twice about calling my agressive paly.

No and I don't think is a good idea because everyone has own strategy in this game

I don't usually do that in tournaments. Because tables or players are constantly changing and you can not have a fixed strategy for yourself, but if you play on a cash game table for a long time, you can use this move as a strategy.

That's exactly what I thought. On case games it is a good vehicle or on final tables to use the mindset factor.

Showing is usually a bad idea. You dont want to give ingormation abut your play. Howevere if I have been winning anumber of hands in a row due to aggression, I will show a great hand so they eill not be inclined to call a bluff later.
In live games, if its afriendly game I will show to a buddy.

Do you usually show the cards before putting them back in the deck? Sometimes it can be a good strategy to brand rivals ... Leave your comment here with the reasons why you do it (or not)


No, I have never shown my cards, but sometimes this desire arises, but I do not see the point in it

I never show

I don't usually show my cards, always good to leave the opponent with doubts about his hands

Sometimes I show my cards, but only when a good card comes up a few times, so that my opponents don't think I'm bluffing a lot.

I never show my cards. I don't understand the players who show cards

I also use very little for the final tables. Because most people have very little stack and it may not even reach 15 BB to show a logical game and often end the game with All-in. For this reason, showing the cards depends a lot on the position and the amount of stacks of the players.

I try as much as possible never to show my cards, not even when I fold in SB, only unless I get to the showdown, there they will be able to see them. The reason is that it gives a lot of information about the structure of my game. Although that depends on the type of poker you play: cash, tournaments or omaha.:wavey:

I never show my cards. If I'm asked to say what I was holding, I lie :)

I never show my cards. Firstly, it has a bad effect on the further game, and secondly, I think it is foolishness. Why do this? This is a game.

I really only show my cards at the end of live tournaments. People online can use that data to get a read on you later through tags. Never offer information away for free online.

In live poker, players will be less likely to use that information later in the tourney, and less likely to commit it to memory.

Ever.

Hello friend I hope everything is fine with you. So I usually show the cards when I see that there are players with a certain experience. Only high and low cards are part of my game strategy.:wavey:

I don't like to show why in the end you are giving information to the opponent about how you are playing
